In the beginning of August, the state of Assam in India suffered from the worst monsoon season in almost a decade. Everything was flooded by the downpours – homes, communities, and even people became victims of the heavy rains. But the damage was even more serious than that.

Because of the terrible flooding a female elephant was swept away from her herd. The animal found herself in a very difficult situation, yet lucky for her all the people from the nearby village gathered together to rescue her.
